Notable quotes from this WaPo article
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/world/2020/10/09/trump-nobel-peace-prize-foreing-allies/?outputType=amp
“This year, the White House itself released an official statement to announce that Trump had been nominated for the 2021 prize. The World Food Program was awarded the 2020 prize on Friday.”
It’s clear here they are referring to the 2021 nomination for Trump not 2020.
“Unlike most other awards, the Nobel Peace Prize has a remarkably open system for nominations: Among the list of people who can nominate a person or group for a prize are university professors and national lawmakers. Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was nominated in 1939.”
Well Hitler was a Nazi and was nominated so clearly it makes sense Trump would be nominated. Duh
“Trump was subsequently nominated multiple times for the prize in 2019 because of his negotiations with North Korea, according to public statements from those who nominated him.”
The previous nominations were for the 2019 award.
“It is not clear whether Trump was nominated this year — the deadline for nominations was Jan. 31 and the committee keeps nominees’ names secret for 50 years.”
Even though we’re gonna contradict ourselves in a couple of paragraphs we have a way to imply that he was nominated and thus didn’t get it so we’re gonna throw shade because well we’re WaPo and we hate him.
“Although Trump did not win this year, there have been at least three nominations for him announced already for the 2021 prize.”
The nomination dates clearly show this had to be a 2021 prize nomination.
NO, NO, NO! BowlBrothers googled it and google said you are wrong and he isn't discussing it anymore!
